Thermal stress causes the reduction in productivity and harvest quality. To adapt to different temperature ranges, plants activate protecting metabolic pathways. Previous studies have reported that stressful environments due abiotic stresses an impact on accumulation of glucosinolates (GSLs) Brassicaceae plants. In order determine role GSLs plant response thermal stress, we conducted a study co...

Radish sprouts are valued as a key nutrient-dense food in Asian countries. In the current study, we examined how radish responded to treatments with various carbon sources. The influence of those parameters such plant growth and glucosinolate phenolic compounds levels were analyzed. A positive correlation between accumulation glucosinolates phenolics was observed. this except for galactose trea...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Plants damaged by herbivores emit a variety of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Here we used proton-transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) as a sensitive detection method for online analysis of herbivore-induced VOCs. Previously, it was found that Brassica nigra plants emit several sulfur-containing VOCs when attacked by cabbage root fly (Delia radicum) larvae with m...

The diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae), is an important insect pest of cruciferous crops. Understanding its preference patterns can lead to more efficient management methods, such as trap Several strains P. were used test whether there differences in oviposition a four-choice setting, on abaxial versus adaxial leaf surfaces 28 different plant species, and substr...
